Sad Panda

[xhan]

I bought three cory's yesterday, an albino, a panda and supposidly a leopard cory but it turns out its really an upside down catfish! Oh well, he's awesome. (I also rescued a very badly nipped betta!)

The albino is zooming around the tank being all happy the catfish is doing fine but the panda cory just sits. I've been doing some reading that they're more sensitive than other types of cory, and that the temperature of my tank is probably a bit high for them (I've turned down the heater) but he was in the tank with a very dead cory in the shop and I wondered if that might have affected him? Theres nothing physically wrong with him (as far as I can tell - hence pictures!) I just wanted a second opinion! I worry too much about my fish!

Alot of TLC, and good quality water is whats needed.

Thanks for all your help guys but he didn't make it He died a few hours after I medicated him.

Took him back to the shop today, I now have two albinos.
